Freehold Knee Pain Relief

Experience Natural, Nonsurgical Knee Pain Relief

It’s been characterized by pain, swelling, stiffness and decreased range of motion. A debilitating condition, osteoarthritis of the knee is the #1 cause of disability in the United States. According to the Arthritis Foundation, 27 million people suffer from arthritis of the knee, which can negatively impact their quality of life.

What Causes Knee Arthritis?

Though age is a considerable risk factor, younger people can experience osteoarthritis as well. Sustaining an injury, having an infection and being overweight can also contribute to the development of this condition. With knee arthritis, cartilage, or the connective tissue in the knee, wears away. When cartilage breaks down, leaving the bones to rub together, the knee also loses its important lubricating fluid. The result is pain and a host of other symptoms.

Long-lasting Results With Hyaluronate

Maybe you’ve tried knee injections in the past but didn’t get the results you were hoping for. There is hope and help with a fluid called Hyaluronate. This substance, which contains hyaluronic acid that is found in abundance in healthy joints, is effective in lubricating the joint and decreasing pain.

Hyaluronate has been given over 40 million times, yielding lasting relief of knee pain caused by osteoarthritis. At our practice, Dr. Scot Paris performs the procedure. He has received training in general surgery and has helped many patients experience excellent results with Hyaluronate.

To help give you the best results, we use fluoroscopy guidance to ensure that the Hyaluronate makes its way to the knee capsule. Once there, it creates a cushioning layer by joining with the joint fluid. Every injection is performed with great precision, so the Hyaluronate gets into the knee capsule every time. When fluoroscopy is not used, less than desirable results occur: over 30% of the time doctors miss the capsule, according to some estimates.
